Letting the least rational person involved with a crime make decisions about punishment of the criminal is a little much. I have all the sympathy in the world for crime victims, but there is a reason that juries are composed of impartial citizens.
If you are concerned about our "revolving door" justice system, perhaps you shuld consider efforts to use alternative sentences for non-violent drug crimes. It's these crimes that are filling our prisons and swamping the courts.
